Rena’s throat felt constricted, and her composure threatened to crumble. She extended a trembling hand and cautiously touched the child.

Alexis’ excitement even surpassed Rena’s.

She fixated her gaze upon Rena’s brown hair, lovely countenance, slender waist and graceful legs. In Alexis’ eyes, Rena epitomized stunning beauty-a mother tailor-made for her.

Alexis willingly allowed Rena’s touch.

In fact, Alexis nestled against Rena affectionately.

Resting her pointed chin on Rena’s shoulder, Alexis introduced herself, “My name is Lexi.”

Lexi…

Rena was stunned for a moment. The name too, reminded her of her own lost little angel.

She felt a profound fondness for the little girl, yet the pertinent question still needed to be posed.

“What is your father’s name?”

Glistening tears welled up in Alexis’ beautiful eyes.

“My father is a street vendor who sells eggs. People say he’s a profiteer. My mother is no longer with us… Dad is always very busy and there is no one to care for me.”Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

In a few succinct words, the portrait of a destitute child was painted.

Rena’s heart ached.

She gently wiped away Alexis’ tears, unable to resist the impulse to plant a tender kiss on her cheek. In that fleeting moment, Rena’s heart melted, although a fingering sense of guilt nagged at her, as if she were stealing something from others.

Without hesitation, Rena resolved to teach Alexis the art of playing the piano.

Alexis’ tender age posed a challenge for Rena, who needed to cradle the little one in her arms while they sat before the piano.

Nestled in Rena’s embrace, Alexis wore a joyful expression. However, she seemed oblivious to the instructions Rena imparted.

Rena couldn’t stifle Alexis’ learning progress.

Thus, Rena adopted a stern demeanor and requested Alexis to demonstrate what had just been taught.

Alexis readily agreed.

She extended her slender fingers and began to play the piano….

Rena was taken aback.

The child possessed an innate talent that surpassed Rena’s wildest imagination, She proved to be the finest student Rena had ever encountered, surpassing even Rena’s own childhood proficiency.
